THOUSANDS of young girls and women in Russia are selling their virginity after finding rich men online who are willing to pay big bucks.

Networks of specialist dealers and scouts actively recruit virgins and link them to wealthy businessmen, taking a slice of fees.

In other cases girls place their own advertisements selling the “right to the first night” on forums and dating websites, promoting themselves to “adult, affluent man”.

Russian social media forums with names like “Bad Girl’s Club” and “Desperate Virgin’s Club” try to attract young women who match what their male clients want — offering sky-high prices.

One post on “Bad Girl’s Club” says: “Looking for virgin girls under 19 …. Smart, beautiful, charming, from any cities in Russia. We pay tickets to Moscow and back, 1-2 days …. Type of girls, as on the photo” — which shows a girl in lingerie in a revealing pose on a bed.
